Product Details
I'm delighted to introduce this knitting pattern for a tiny premature baby's first Christmas Santa knit set, just 10 inch chest. I created it because I wanted to make tiny baby clothes that were a more natural fit for premature babies. Since the coat is for such a tiny little premature baby, the sleeves have been made wide to enable the baby to be dressed as easily as possible. The back and fronts are knitted in one piece to the armholes to minimise uncomfortable seams. The design is knitted in stocking stitch with garter stitch borders and belt. It closes neatly with 3 small buttons to the front. The hat is a simple beanie which features a ribbed stitch border and stocking stitch. It is knitted flat on 2 needles. Included in the pattern is an NICU Santa toy with long thin legs - ideal for a preemie to grip for comfort - working in a similar way to a preemie octopus. The pattern includes instructions for knitting for boys and girls.
